Turkish center Omer Yurtseven did his best Wilt Chamberlain impression, scoring 91 points and adding 28 rebounds in a historic performance for Fenerbahce in an under-18 game Sunday against 9 Eylul Basketbol Ihtisas, per Sports Illustrated.
"Fenerbahce is a really good club and they play at a high level," he said, per Scout's Evan Daniels. "I haven’t been playing that much, so I need to go some place that I can to play more and to improve. That’s why I want to go to college."
Yurtseven has scholarship offers from Utah, North Carolina State and Syracuse, with 247Sports' Jerry Meyer predicting he'll land with the Wolfpack.
Daniels noted eligibility could be a problem for Yurtseven given his professional experience overseas. The NCAA ruled Kanter ineligible in 2011 after he accepted cash while playing with Fenerbahce.
